#000A - The prototype (And so it begins...)
Although this wasn't the first wallet chain I ever made, it was the first to inspire more of the designs to come.
Roughly 5 years ago, when I started putting chains together, I wanted to push the concept further after seeing something done similar for a pocket watch, albeit with only 1strand instead of two. During this time, I was really into the blue and gold contrast, and thought that white, along with these 2 colors, would make for a nice, clean color scheme overall.
This was the final result: gold-plated stainless steel chain, with gold-plated brass components, and natural howlite and lapis lazuli stones. And, as a finishing touch, a shoelace with matching white and blue glass beads around the keyring for an asymmetrical look which I've ways preferred (there also used to be a large gold safety pin linked on here as well, but eventually that fell off over time).
From here, the goal was to go even bigger and more intricate with the designs. But due to other factors, it would take a few more years for those processes to come together.
